Separated at birth – Renault Master and a skip

If you’re into your classic vehicles than I highly recommend a trip to Athens, where the streets are like a throwback to 1980s Britain. I’m talking about countless Mk3 Cortinas, Humber Sceptres, Hillman Hunters, Mk2 Escorts and Austin 1100s trundling through the streets. There are a fair few old vans too, and you’ll see plenty of T2 Transporters and Mk1 and Mk2 Transits still working for a living. In fact they like their old vans so much that they seem to be designing their waste disposal skips to look like them! Surely I can’t be alone in thinking that this Kaoussis-built waste disposal compactor looks suspiciously like an original Renault Master. Have a look for yourself.
